  10. Beautiful pictures Bob. I thought of you this weekend whilst using my awful photographic skills and a little point and shoot to capture a Treecreeper in Sussex. The little bleeder was too fast for me and I thought you would have done a much better job.

  15. The "cap" on this bird is really interesting. The song and video, "Whip it! And whip it good!" comes to mind:)

  28. Great proximity Bob!
    This kind of small bird is fast and not that easy to capture with a camera!
    Well done!
    Here too the sun is starting to take over from the rainy days of this past month!
    Cheers!

  30. 2légance et légèreté de l'oiseau posé sur une branche et qui observe le monde qui l'entoure.
    Simplicité et beauté d'une photo d'un amoureux des oiseaux.
